LootBox is a mystery box site, full stop. There's no sportsbook, no slots, no live dealer, just boxes. You pick one, pay for it, and something comes out. It's been around since 2020, registered in Cyprus under LOOTBOX LTD (HE 466358), and has apparently grown to hundreds of thousands of monthly users according to their own claims (unverified by me, take that for what it's worth).
what's actually in the box catalog
The site lists 232 boxes across two main categories: IRL items and CS2 skins. IRL boxes can ship physical goods to the USA, Canada, Brazil, and most of Europe. CS2 items go directly to your Steam inventory worldwide. That split matters because the logistics are completely different and so are your realistic odds of things going wrong.
Beyond standard unboxing, there's a Case Battles mode where you open against other players and the higher-value pull wins the pot. There's also an Upgrader tool with 10,000+ items where you trade existing inventory for a shot at something more valuable. That last one is essentially a slot machine wearing a skin-trading coat, the house always has an edge.
provably fair: what it actually means here
LootBox uses HMAC verification with SHA256 and SHA512 hashing. Provably Fair means you can verify after the fact that a given result wasn't manipulated. It does not mean the odds are good, it means they weren't tampered with after the fact. The site displays prize odds on each box, which is what you'd expect from a legit operation. Prize odds being visible and the system being verifiable are both positives I won't gloss over.
bonuses and VIP
The welcome offer is 5% deposit bonus. That's it. No free spin equivalent, no first-purchase match worth talking about. There is a free daily case for all registered users, which is a nice touch. VIP tiers run from Bronze up to Opal, with rakeback, weekly and monthly bonuses, and access to the $2,500 weekly leaderboard competition. Rakeback especially can add up for high-volume players, that's the part worth paying attention to if you're planning to put real money in.
deposits and withdrawals
You can fund with Visa, MasterCard, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Solana, Dogecoin, XRP, USDC, and USDT across multiple networks. That's a solid deposit menu. Crypto is available for withdrawals too, alongside physical item shipping and Steam trades for CS2 skins. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and payout estimates run 1-5 days.
Note: there's no no-crypto deposit method for withdrawals if you funded by card, your exit route may differ from your entry route depending on what you won. Worth checking before you assume you can cash out the way you came in.
the trust picture
This is where I'd slow down. LootBox has no gambling license listed in their details, they're registered in Cyprus as a company, but that's a corporate registration, not a gaming regulator approval. Sites like McLuck and Fortune Coins publish their licensing and regulatory status clearly. LootBox does not. That doesn't automatically make them sketchy, but it's a missing piece you'd want filled in before depositing large amounts.
On Trustpilot, the picture is mixed. Some reviews are positive. Others specifically describe withdrawal delays and accounts being blocked without explanation. I can't verify those claims individually, but the pattern is consistent enough that it's not something to wave off. Provably Fair plus account-level issues would not be the first time a platform has both.
who this is actually for
CS2 players who want to open cases outside the official Steam ecosystem and can receive Steam trades globally. People interested in IRL merchandise boxes from a site that ships internationally in those covered regions. Players who want a provably fair system they can actually audit. This is not a good fit if you need a licensed operator, expect a daily free spin equivalent, or are planning to deposit more than you'd spend on a night out.
Compare it to something like Stake.us on sweepstakes side and the product categories are completely different. LootBox is a niche platform for a specific use case, not a broad gambling substitute.
the short version
LootBox does what it says on the tin for the most part. The Provably Fair setup is real, the game count is reasonable, and the withdrawal options are decent. The bonus structure is thin, the licensing picture is unclear, and some players have run into friction getting paid. Treat it like a platform where small test runs make sense until you've had one successful withdrawal cycle.
PLEASE DO NOT GAMBLE WITH MONEY THAT YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE. Gambling is not a money making method and you will lose in the long run.
